WallaceGlanza Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Calipers by TRD?! ;) Maybe pads yes. Also the intercooler is a wicked ep one not a blitz, I think the garage was making a few things up!The previous owner was chall but aarron before him who did the work on the car, admittedly not all to the best standard. ;) Quote
